Comments Update: Permalink Threads, Popular Conversations
We have a couple of new, cool features for you commenters out there: permalink threads and most popular sorting. How do they work? Well, the timestamp next to each thread in comments (a comment and its responses) is now a link to that thread that stands on its own. You can direct people to that conversation specifically using it. As for popular sorting, you should now see a "Most Popular" link at the top of comment threads. Clicking it brings you to a page showing the threads with the largest number of replies, with the discussion with the most replies on top. Try 'em out and let us know what you think!

Update: Threaded Comments Now Chronological
A quick update to yesterday's comments upgrade: comments are now chronological again. There's still threading, and replies will appear under the comment that they're replying to, but new comments that aren't replies will go at the end of the conversation. This should make things much easier to follow. Thanks for the feedback, and keep it coming! We'll keep tweaking this until it's as good as it can be, because we care so much about you, our valuable readers. Group hug, all y'all!

New Giz Feature: Threaded Comments
Welcome to the future, my friends. As of today, Gizmodo (and all the other Gawker sites) now have threaded comments. What's this mean for you? Well, it means that comment threads will no longer be one long list of chronological comments. Instead, when you reply to a specific comment, your comment will go right underneath it. Let's look at it a bit more in depth, shall we? More » -

Well, commenters, here we are again. After we had our little talk a month ago it seems like what we went over hasn't really taken hold.

Comment of the Day
Hey commenters: Despite what we may say to one another, I know deep down we are one big happy family. So after sifting through the daily dose of "Will it blend?"s, "DO (NOT) WANT"s, insane rants, conspiracy theories, and this well-crafted missive, I found something that was both funny and out of the ordinary, and it represents how much you all mean to me. True, it did come from the legend Strider_mt2k, but this is good advice for you up-and-comers who hope to see your own comment up in the bright lights one day. So here it is, your comment of the day, a quick one-liner found on the Massive Lens post: More » -

MacBook Air: Vent or Praise in this Flamewar Thread
Apple's products are usually divisive, but it's rare to see the kind of "I LOVE IT, YOU SUCK!" and "I HATE IT, YOU'RE AN IDIOT" reaction they've gotten with the MacBook Air. Well, here's a post for you readers to go nuts in, either explaining to the world why the MacBook Air is the harbinger of the apocalypse, or why it's the beacon of light that will save humanity from a future stuffed full of thighs crushed by heavy laptops. And like our last flamewar thread, you cannot be banned for anything you say in this thread. If your insanity carries over to another thread, however, bye bye. Here's how to comment. -

Comment Of The Day
The video showing the SmartNav hands-free mouse that controls your PC with your head was just waiting to be made fun of, and that's exactly what our comment of the day did. NUTBASTARD 's (if you think his name is ultra-cool, you should see his avatar; appears to be a bona-fide badass) comment with reference to a Tilaka and his use of trademark symbols proved to be a comment that was simply a cut above the rest, and so it must be awarded with the comment of the day.

Comment Of The Day
Since yesterday's comment of the day was so popular, we struggled to find one today that would be just as compelling... At first it seemed that a comment in the Apple Year-End Report Card was going to take it, but then about 40 other commenters said the same thing, by also calling the Giz "fanboys"; so that quickly became unoriginal. Then the comment of the day was found, and we know at least one commenter will agree, EMOSHUNZ that means you. OMG!!! PONIES!!! 's comment on Bill Gates' recent Mexican investment, is a well thought-out joke that we couldn't help but award with the comment of the day.

Comment Of The Day
Today's comment of the day came to us while browsing the comments for the Turbo Toaster; and although we anticipated to read jokes criticizing the Queen lovin' Redcoat's inability to make tasty food, this comment was sadly not one of them. Dustybutt's (wish that wasn't his name) comment proved to be very entertaining by not only making a joke of a crazy product idea but also having a superb choice of delivery. So without further adieu, here is the comment of the day, by our very own, Dustybutt.. More »

Only two days left until the Gizmodo vs. Kotaku Halo match is here. We're still working on how we're going to record Kotaku's loss for posterity, but you can catch it live on Justin.tv at 8 p.m. PST (11PM EST). We'll be liveblogging it as well, so expect to see lots of "8:53: I just teabagged Crecente." To get a sneak preview of how that looks, check out the picture above. More »

How Can the Valentine One Still Be the Best Radar Detector?
I have to buy a radar detector before snow season starts and the Tahoe PD start crawling all over my ass. For a long time, I'd wanted a Valentine One.

Why is there no march of progress here? More »

How to Comment: OK, ANOTHER Change of Halo Plans
Apparently Kotaku "doesn't have time" this Thursday to participate in the Halo match. They have "more important stuff to do" and "will have to move it to next Thursday". If you ask us? Our ever-increasing rank on Halo makes them nervous—and they need more time to practice. Either that, or they're actually busy. Which one do you think is true?! More »

How to Comment: The Gauntlet Has Been Picked Up
Seems like the pirate got wind of our Halo 3 challenge. Good. Challenge is accepted. We had a little warmup Halo yesterday with Ashcraft, Luke, and Mark Wilson, and I have to say, I think Gizmodo's ready for what they've got. And if you're still trying to decide which side/site you should root for, just remember: they're pirates and we're ninjas. That may make things easier for you. More »

How to Comment: Throwing Down the Gauntlet
You guys seem to like the idea of a Gizmodo vs. Kotaku Halo 3 match, and with the Halo 3 recording feature, we can actually export a movie and post it onto our sites, mocking the losers (Kotaku) with dialog recorded afterwards. Now, we just need to come up with the rules. Is it everyone on Giz versus everyone on Kot? Because we have about thirty-seven and they have around four. Or is it our best versus their best? Let us know what you guys want to see. And then go over to Kotaku and comment on every single post they do that they're going to lose to Gizmodo. More »

How to Comment: Kotaku's Going Down
I just want to gauge reader reaction to this idea. Who would be interested in seeing a Halo 3 tourney between Gizmodo and Kotaku? Anyone? I mean, it wouldn't be much of a contest seeing as Crecente only has one good eye, Ashcraft has the network latency of someone living in Japan, and McWhertor doesn't even own a 360, but I think it'd be fun. What do you readers think? Are you interested in watching and hearing some trash talk between us and them? Winner gets to, I don't know, corpse hump the other site? Let me know in the comments.

Commenter Retirement Party Video Makes Me Yearn For Hotter Giz Comments
